Building resistance & protecting our community against police violence

Thread 🧵 1.

BrightonCopWatch have seen the video of the horrific attack at Manchester airport in which GMP cops were filmed kicking & stamping on the head of a young Asian man who was lying on the floor. This was done in full view of his family who were unable to assist him.

There are Black boys in prison who haven’t harmed anyone, who are doing long stretches in prison for murder and conspiracy to murder.

[Roxy Legane @RoxyLegane]

Fuck anyone who suggests Chris Kaba’s history of ‘crime’ or harm justifies his killing. That is a death penalty.

[Griff Ferris (Bluesky - @gferr1s) @gferr1s]

there is no justification for police executing unarmed people in the street.

these stories are seeking to manufacture consent and excuses for the police's execution of Chris Kaba - just as they did with Mark Duggan.

Chris Kaba.
Killed by the institutionally racist Metropolitan Police.
Martyn Blake, who shot Kaba who was unarmed, will not be held to account for his crime.
Since 1990, 1,904 people have been killed by the UK police.
Not one police officer has ever been found guilty of murder.

“Today, we are devastated. No family should endure the unimaginable grief we have faced.

Chris was stolen from us, and this decision shows his life - and many others like him - does not matter to the system. Our son deserved better."
